At 10:00am today, the Group will hold its Annual General Meeting (the "AGM" or the "Meeting") at Unit 5, The Pavilions, Ruscombe Park, Twyford, Berkshire, RG10 9NN. At that time, the Chief Executive Officer of accesso will provide the following update on trading for the four months ended 30 April 2019:

"The Board is pleased to report a positive start to trading in the 2019 financial year, with the Board maintaining its existing guidance for the current financial year. So far, the Group has continued to see strong demand for our core solutions, both as individual products and increasingly for multiple applications at individual sites. We continue to see positive adoption of combined Accesso Passport and Accesso Siriusware deployments, which are now operating in tandem for existing customers at 13 locations worldwide, with several additional deployments expected between now and the end of 2019. The recent announcement of the upcoming implementation of Accesso Siriusware and Accesso Passport at the National WWII Museum, New Orleans is typical of this trend.

Furthermore, we are pleased to note that the successful TE2 and Accesso Passport integration, at Cedar Fair's Knotts Berry Farm theme park is now being rolled out across the 10 remaining Cedar Fair locations.

At the Group's 2018 preliminary results, the Board introduced additional segmental disclosures to provide greater transparency and granularity of the Group's performance. We are pleased to report that in our Guest Experience segment, trading has begun well, notwithstanding the fact that the majority of revenue in this segment is generated in the second half of the year. While in Ticketing and Distribution, we saw stronger than expected trading in Ticketing, offset by the slower than anticipated rollout of Distribution activities in North America, leading to the segment as a whole trading in line with Board expectations.

In order to address the increased demand from customers for joint implementations of multiple Accesso solutions, and to accelerate future growth, the Group is making significant investment into product integration. While in the early stages of our accelerated integration programme, the Board is pleased to note that progress is in line with our expectations. Through evolving and broadening our range of solutions the Board remains confident that the Group will be able to accelerate and unlock additional cross-sell and up-sell potential within our installed base and develop more efficient development, support and service delivery to our customers.

While the majority of the trading year still remains ahead of us, the Board is encouraged by the trading seen at this stage of the year and remains confident in the Group's outlook, maintaining Board expectations for the year ahead."
